Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 - Source? - Rose
Posted: Nov 14, 2013
Anyone know where I can get a new Microsoft Natural Ergo Keyboard 4000 for under $37. Checked eBay, Google and Google shopping. Thanks!
You might try - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Newegg.com Running about $40, excellent return policy.
Amazon - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Although.....if you could wait or search through the Black Friday deals now, you might have some luck. The last ones I bought came from Dell on Black Friday a few years ago and they were $19.99 each.
Thanks to both of you! (sm) - Rose
[ In Reply To ..]Newegg has them for $39 and free shipping.
Amazon had link to another company in UT selling new ones but opened box for 31.94 including shipping so I went with that.
I've used these keyboards over a decade and they are the best!
except the letters on the keyboard - wear off
[ In Reply To ..]very quickly.. I even tried nail polish, and that helped, but not much. been through three keyboards in less than a year.
ah, we don't need letters! - We are professionals! nm

Thinking the same thing, don't need the - keys, wear them off myself
[ In Reply To ..]When one of my keyboards gets on the blink, you can bet the keys have been worn off long time before the keyboard went.

Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro...need A New Keyboard, Any Recommendations?
Apr 03, 2010
Microsoft has discontinued these great keyboards and I need a new one. Anybody aware of a split keyboard that has a really nice touch (remember those old IBM keyboards?) for transcription work by Microsoft or another brand that you really like?

Microsoft 4000 Keyboard Versus Logitech
Aug 28, 2014
i have been using the Microsoft 4000 keyboard for quite a few years now and love the shape and features, but it doesn't seem to last more then 5 or 6 months, so when it starts acting up I just order a new one off Amazon and keep the replacement close by until the old one dies. When looking tonight for my next replacement, I spotted the Logitech wave combo mk550 wireless with a wireless mouse. The keyboard is just a little different but the wireless part appeals to me. I wo ...

Looking For A New Keyboard To Replace MS Natural Elite.
Jun 30, 2013
Has anyone found a good replacement for their Microsoft Natural Elite keyboard? I'm trying to find something with the same, or very similar, keypad layout. I have a Kinesis Freestyle and just cannot get used to the placement. Very frustrating. I then bought a Microsoft Ergo 4000 and found out afterward many people (myself included) are complaining about a design flaw with the spacebar. An Amazon seller has a Natural Elite for $189, a bit out of my price range right now. So, if anyone has an ...

What's Your Fave Ergonomic Keyboard
Jul 31, 2010
Well I just spent a load of $ on a fancy-schmancy ergonomic Goldtouch keyboard, and I like the layout, EXCEPT that after a month, the keys are hard and gluey-feeling. It was supposed to have a very "light touch." The space bar on the right side sticks constantly and I have to hit it so hard with my thumb, my hand is starting to hurt. What is your favorite ergonomic keyboard? I still remember a wonderful soft springy Compaq keyboard that I loved, until my coworker worked at my desk one ...

I have been a transcriptionist for quite some time and have used the Microsoft Elite Ergonomic Keyboard and have tried two new replacements but for some reason with the newer version of this brand the keys are really hard to touch.

*great ideas* ever actually turn out to be something BETTER? They always hype their BS up and then it turns out to be a huge let down, waste of time, and nothing but a HUGE Pain the ARSE. E-time sucked too, but this sucks EVEN MORE. They can't just leave bad enough alone. And for the life of me I can't figure out where to see our PTO hours. That was easy in E-time. Can anyone tell me where to find this? I'd greatly appreciate it. ...
